Github user Fuud commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/maven-surefire/pull/114 I am not sure that I understand your question. But I can try to answer :) 1) JUnit has @RunWith annotaion that consumes Class<? extends Runner> 2) This Runner should implement method getDescription. But it is not prohibited to report via getDescription less children than will be ran. 3) There is only one releable method to get all children: run Runner and listen to RunNotifier. 4) JUnit's default JUnitCore does not skip runners that reports no children. Surefire does.
